About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

They are excellent, my daughter went from speaking 2 English words to fluently speaking English in less than a year and her confidence is amazing now. Good communication. I didn't have any issues with the nursery at all.

This nursery/preschool is fantastic. We first started in September 2023 with my 3-year-old, who was in a smaller nursery and the transition was perfect. Now my second child attends the baby side and they are as brilliant and competent there. Both kids are super happy to go, have made friends with the other kids and/or the staff. The activities offered are engaging, challenging (for the last year of preschool, getting them well ready for school). Meals are freshly cooked on site every day and they even cater for vegetarians. And every time I had a suggestion/ comment, the managing team listened and took on board what I had to say. I really recommend this nursery/preschool!
Thank you for these lovely comments, we have loved to support them in getting ready for school, it's such a lovely journey to watch!
Great staff, friendly, always kind and open to support. If any enquiries, the team is happy to bring attention and prioritise your suggestions. Thank you for being so kind with our child and for being so patient with us as well.

The 3 meals a day and 2 snacks are great and means I don't have to send my daughter in with anything (except breastmilk). The app is great as it lists everything you need to know on there about their day. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your feedback, we love to hear parents' views, the children all love the food!
I am very happy with the care and more importantly my daughter is happy as well at the nursery. The online app that the Nursery uses is very helpful as it keeps me always updated about the activities and what it is to come and easy to communicate with the staff if you want to pass a...
Thanks to the staff which is very patient and involved. My daughter enriched her vocabulary, learned a lot of new songs and she is very good with writing and letters recognition.
I really reccomend this nursery!
Thankyou for the feedback, we are so glad to see how she has grown with us over her time here.

I love this nursery! My daughter joined the Cocoon room in June. She was 6 months at the time, it was very nerve-wracking for me to put my small baby into nursery, but the staff made me feel so comfortable and at ease. They were vigilant in following all the requests I made as a parent regarding my daughter's routine and kept in regular contact with me regarding her progress in settling in. 2 months in and my daughter has settled in beautifully. She has a lovely attachment to her keyworker and the rest of the staff. Her routine has had minor changes which the staff have adjusted to mirror at nursery seamlessly. She arrives happy and always leaves with a smile when I collect. If any issues arise throughout her session the staff are quick to act and be in contact if they feel they need to, but I trust that they will always make the correct decision regarding her care. The free homemade meals are a massive bonus on top of the reasonably priced fees. I give this nursery the highest rating.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, it is always so nice to hear positive notes, especially from the parents of our Littlest Little Thinkers.
My daughter switched from the smaller nursery to Little Thinkers and it's been brilliant. She has come on leaps and bounds and absolutely loves going to school. Everyone is lovely, she has lots of fun and learns new things. Would always recommend it!

My son still currently goes to this nursery and it has been literally amazing! We have days where he’s been poorly or hasn’t slept great due to him being overwhelmed (additional needs) staff has been truly supportive and couldn’t thank you enough for everything you do for my son and still do from...

All the staff are so welcoming and engaging, all of my daughter's key workers have been excellent and built such an incredible bond with her that she comes home and talks about them all the time! It’s really lovely to see!
They’ve really prepared her for school and I can see that she’s already excited to take the step in September.
